EVNGENCO 1: To promptly improve reliability and availability of thermal power generator units

This is one of the directions made by EVN’s General Director Tran Dinh Nhan to Power Generation Corporation 1 (EVNGENCO 1), at the working session on the implementation of construction investment, production and business tasks in 2019 and period 2016 - 2020 of EVNGENCO 1.

Mr. Tran Dinh Nhan emphasized that EVNGENCO 1 was currently managing more than 7,000MW of power source - the largest power source capacity scale among 3 Power Generation Corporations of EVN.

Reporting at the working session, Mr. Nguyen Tien Khoa, Chairman of EVNGENCO 1’s Member Council, said that the Corporation’s production output in the period of 2016 - 2018 had continuously increased year by year, from over 23 billion kWh (2016) to more than 32 billion kWh (2018), corresponding to the development of the Corporation's production scale.

Particularly, the hydropower block overfulfilled the assigned power production plan and basically achieved the targets of stable and reliable operation. In thermal power plants, some stable and reliable operation targets of generator units have not reached the plan, due to the high incident rate and prolonged maintenance and repair.

The equitization plan and progress of the Corporation, with the proposed equitization moment of the Corporation from 1 January 2020, was submitted to the Prime Minister by the Commission for the Management of State Capital at Enterprises.

In order to ensure the completion of the 2016 - 2020 plan, the Corporation will focus on ensuring safe and stable operation of power plants, particularly improving the performance of coal-fired thermal power plants; at the same time, ensuring coal fuel and operating thermal power plants to meet environmental requirements.

For thermal power plants, the Corporation will check up the production and business situation every week. For construction investment, EVNGENCO 1 will ensure the construction progress of the projects including Duyen Hai 3 Thermal Power Plant Extension, Da Nhim Hydropower Plant Extension, Da Mi Reservoir Solar Power; at the same time, accelerate the settlement of the works.

In parallel with implementing production and business tasks, EVNGENCO 1 will accelerate the equitization as planned.
